A Miscalculation

I’ve always been bad with numbers. Math was never my forte. I even failed Math 10 in high school and have no idea how I passed the others.

I miscounted my days off. I work tomorrow.

I was planning on taking it easy today. I had a nail appointment this morning and some banking to do but that was it. I was going to take the afternoon to just chill out and blog, maybe nap, basically just do whateva I wanted. Leave the grocery shopping/meal planning/laundry and going to bed early for tomorrow. Snakes! :(

On a happier note, the beautiful Madeleine of Stepping to the Bright Side and the gorgeous Katey of Bonne Sante nominated mee for a Stylish Blogger Award! Love it love it love it! :D Thanks laaadies! Make sure you check out there AWESOME blogs!

7 things about me:

I like to grocery shop. More than like. Looove. Especially new grocery stores. I go almost every day and try new products like it’s my job.

I am trying to figure out how to go to cooking school. Student visas/tourist visas/work visas, down payments, leave of absence requests. Uggggggggh. Hopefully it will happen this year.

Our local radio station plays “The Lunch Break Booty Shake” every day at noon and if I’m home I shake my booty for the entire hour. Crazy arm flailing happy feet dance. :)

I drink smoothies every day. Well, almost every day. 6 out 7 days I do. And I only drink 2 different kinds: macatastic (with added lucuma powder) and green monster smoothies with peanut butter and blueberries. I’ll switch it up again in the summer.

I eat salads 7 out of 7 days. They are tha bomb. Diggity. But if you read my blog regularly, you already know this.

I make hummus at the start of every week. Susan’s sunflower hummus to be exact. There is no better. I use it on everrrything. Lately I like to mash it with broccoli or sweet potatoes and put it on a wrap. Or mix it with rice. Or on pizza.

I am obsessed with lululemon. Not in a bad credit card debt kinda way. Just in a I want to work out when I have new clothes kinda way.

OK so I know that I am supposed to nominate 15 other awwwesome bloggers, but it’s kinda hard to find 15 that haven’t already been nominated so I’m tagging YOU now. If you haven’t received a nomination, this is yours now. I’m a rule breaker. SORRY.

On another happy note I received my Xpress smart cups from Janetha’s giveaway today!! Love getting mail. I don’t drink coffee but you can also make these with tea! Sweet.

I immediately opened the box and turned on the kettle.

I dumped about 1 1/2 tbsp loose leaf tea into the bottom of a cup.

Poured in my hot water.

Put the lid on and waited 3 minutes.

Pushed the pusher down and snap! Teeeeaaaa.

I opened it back up and was a little disappointed to see tea leaves floating in my cup, HOWEVER the mouth piece has a screen so there is nothing to worry about!! Awwwwesome! Thanks Janetha and Xpress!
